Chapter Twenty

The term "artificial hauni" is definitely a bit exaggerated. What this prism can produce is just a series of relatively eye-catching colored lights. But it is just like this. As long as it is used properly, it will be enough to save His Majesty this time.

Later, Zhong Limei dismissed all his staff. When everyone left, Lu Liang stopped Wei Ling at the door of the study.

"Master Wei, that uncle, have you ever had any contact with him?"

"Not really."

"Today he borrowed Young Master Mo's hand to give a gift to the father-in-law. It seems that he had some plans, but the father-in-law didn't say a word to him after accepting it. I don't know what he thought."

"Of course you have your own thoughts, sir. Why do you want to do this? I suddenly thought of a happy event. Mr. Liang, would you like to hear it?"

"Appreciate further details."

"I heard that your Majesty was wrongly remonstrated by his ministers because of the rainbow a few days ago, but this was not the original intention of heaven. Therefore, during the Waking of Insects, your Majesty received a dream from an immortal and was taught the method of splitting light into a rainbow, to show that your Majesty is pure and upright, and to show God's favor... This how?"

"It's not bad."



The Liuyin courtyard dominates the scenery, whispering the clear sky and the days are long. The blue waves are rising in the small pond, and the two are busy licking the water.

The leaves are scattered, the catkins are fluttering, and the body is light and crazy. The fragrance of fallen flowers flows away for pity, and the general returns to the painting beam.

The mansion of a wealthy family is really nice. When I first came here, I didn't take a close look at it. Now I was leisurely walking around the Huaiming Duke's mansion. Seeing the swallows lingering on the green tiles and blue waves, Situ Xi felt a little emotional.

It can be said that his current residence can be regarded as a humble residence. There are three people at home. Now he has some spare money, so it is really time to find a new home.

Why don't you go wander around the shops today, ask some people in the village of Xishi, and have a look.

"Youxian Advocacy" records that when Bai Juyi first arrived in the capital, the poet Gu Kuang ridiculed Bai Juyi's name and said: Rice is expensive, and living is not easy.

It is said that Xuan'an is also the capital of the country, so perhaps we can say "Living in Xuan'an is not easy."

However, with his current financial resources, even if the house price in Xuan'an is not cheap, he can still buy a good house in a slightly remote place. He just doesn't know if the process of changing residence will be troublesome with his embarrassing status.

Xuan'an City is also divided into the West Market and the East Market. Most of the shops in the West Market are ordinary people doing business, while the East Market gathers dignitaries.

The distance between the two markets and Central Street is actually about the same. When they were first established, they were not intentionally separated. It was just because most of the houses of the powerful were on the east side of the city. Over time, they became separated.

While walking on a winding path, Situ Xi suddenly saw Zhong Limo running towards him. He was holding a brocade bag in his hand, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes, as if he had just cried.

"Can't I help you?" Seeing that he was not in a high mood, Situ Xi thought that the prism he gave him had no effect, so he asked him out loud.

"No. Brother-in-law, that crystal works very well. My father accepted it. Thank you so much for this time, brother-in-law. I will remember it in my heart and will repay you later. Today I also told my father and all my uncles that this prism is yours." I won’t be greedy for credit.” Zhong Limo came to Situ Xi and said with a forced smile.

"Then why do I see you looking so depressed?"

"Father has a weird temper. I don't know why I made him angry today..." Speaking of this, Zhong Limo felt a little aggrieved.

"Brother-in-law, this is the thank you gift my mother promised you last time. It is a piece of peace talisman. She went out today, so she asked me to give it to you. It is said that she asked for it from the Jiuchi Temple. If you take this to the temple, you will get some preferential treatment.

I don't know the details, so you accept it first." Not wanting to mention the unhappy things again, Zhong Limo handed the tips bag in his hand to Situ Xi.

Nearby the temple, Situ Xi silently remembered the name in his heart and put this bag of tips into his pocket.

"Brother-in-law, I have to finish my schoolwork at home in the next few days. After I finish all the tasks assigned by my husband, I want to see if I can ask my mother to go to your and sister Zhen's house for a visit. Is that okay?"

"Of course you can. I'm also preparing to buy a new house."

"By the way, Mo'er, I have something to trouble you with. I want to write a letter. Please help me deliver it to your mother." Situ Xi promised Mr. Fan to help him ask Zhong Limei if he has done anything in the past two days.

I am willing to meet him, but since Zhong Limei is in a bad mood today, forget it and ask the eldest lady to convey it to him first. Anyway, the matter of collecting food cannot be rushed.

"no problem."



After leaving the Duke Huaiming's Mansion, Situ Xi wandered around the market. He was going to check out the sake restaurant. When it was time to eat, the pre-selection results for the Spring Food Festival had been out for two days, so he happened to go to see Lao Zhangtou.

Is there any good news?

At noon, the streets were crowded with people, the market was noisy, vendors of all kinds were shouting non-stop, and the loud-voiced clerks were shouting, but they didn’t feel tired. Situ Xi felt a little tinnitus as he walked, so he turned around and entered an alley. He remembered from

You can also go to Yupan Street here, which is a bit detoured, but it is pleasantly quiet.

"Good man, this is your sign..."

Just entering the alley, Situ Xi suddenly heard a familiar voice. He looked intently and saw an old Taoist with a long beard standing in front of his fortune-telling stall. In front of the stall stood a handsome young man. The layout on the stall

It was so familiar that there was no mistaking it. This sword-wielding Taoist priest was the same Taoist who told him his fortune when he returned home that day. It turned out that he had come here.

However, he said at the time that he would encounter some strange things in those two days. Now that he thinks about it, he did see blood that day, and there seemed to be some things that could be called "strange things" after that.

Could it be that he really has something?

With suspicion, Situ Xi came to his fortune-telling stall again and stood side by side with the young man who was asking for fortune-telling.

"Sir, do you also want to sign a lottery? The old Taoist here has always been accurate in interpreting the lottery, and it will definitely clear up some confusion in your life." The old Taoist priest was secretly happy when he saw another guest coming. He first talked to Situ Xi.

After speaking, he immediately greeted him and asked him to shake the lotus tube first and draw out the lotus, "It's just that the old Taoist is trying to solve this good man's doubts at the moment. You still need to wait for a while, but you can shake the lotus tube first and it will fall from the hole.

The first wooden stick is what you get today."

The Taoist priest didn't even recognize him. It seemed that he had many customers every day and his business was booming.

Without further ado, Situ Xi picked up the skewer tube. It was a nearly sealed long cylindrical tube with a small hole on the lower side and a lid on the upper side so that no one could see the wooden skewers inside.

Taking the wooden tube in his hand for the second time, Situ Xi shook it. When the old Taoist saw this behavior, the corners of his mouth could not help but raise. At this moment, Situ Xi suddenly held the tube with both hands and twisted it violently.

With a "pop" sound, the tube cover fell to the ground, and the old Taoist priest's smile froze.
